2024 Aegean Yacht Explorer M26

The Aegean Explorer M26 is a 2024 steel-hulled motor yacht designed and built in-house by Aegean Yacht as the second hull in their new explorer line. At 85 feet with a beam of 23 feet, the yacht combines a steel hull with aluminum superstructure for stability and seaworthiness across varied conditions. Twin MAN diesel engines producing 650 horsepower each deliver a maximum speed of 12.7 knots and a comfortable cruising speed of 10 knots, with a range exceeding 3,500 nautical miles.

The interior layout accommodates six guest cabins including three full-beam master suites, alongside seven heads. The main arrangement offers three owner cabins of nearly identical size suitable for charter use, a VIP double cabin, and two twin-berthed cabins, each with private ensuite facilities. The main deck houses an elegant saloon and dining area finished in warm tones, with a modern galley forward on the port side. A separate crew staircase and mess area allow the crew to move throughout the yacht independently of guest spaces.

Outdoor areas are extensive, featuring multiple guest relaxation zones including a sky lounge and a large swim platform. Additional crew cabins are provided separately, and the yacht includes substantial storage capacity throughout. The design prioritizes long-range cruising and extended stays at remote destinations.
